A 12-inch single released in 1982 by The Fun Boy Three, the group formed in 1981 by Terry Hall, Neville Staple and Lynval Golding after leaving UK ska icons The Specials, featuring female vocal group Bananarama, consisting of Sara Dallin, Keren Woodward and Siobhan Fahey. The title track was originally released as a 7-inch single and became the breakthrough hit for Bananarama, while this 12-inch version features an extended section titled “Just Do It.” The real highlight here is the B-side, “The Funrama Theme,” which also differs from the single version, treated with dub effects and chorus work to create a more floor-friendly ska/new wave tune.
